My seat is 15 feet from the screen. The projector is an LCD (Sony VPL 400Q) that has a built in line doubler so there are no scan lines. Actually the picture looks extremely good, especially anamorphic DVDs. I use component on DVD and S-video on satellite, VHS and laserdisc. There is a noticable drop off in sharpness when I use S-video for the DVD player - not huge, but definately noticable.
Burple: a cross between
blue and
purple. Very cleaver, those paint guys. There's "ghost" graphics under the paint that you can see in the pictures, but don't show up as much in darker lighting situations.
